    one of my go to blurays is the mad max fury road in 4k. it looks and sounds incredible. the entire first 30 minutes are nothing short of a high adrenaline rush that sounds amazing and look just as good!

    Good choices. I remember the lobby shoot-out scene of "The Matrix" used to over-heat receivers if the 5.1 system did not have self-powered subwoofers. We had to tell a lot of people to turn down the sub for this movie.

    The opening from Quantum of Solace has a car chase scene that will make your home theater salivate. Aston Martin vs Alfa Romero with plenty of gunfire and car crashes. Its one of my go-to demos for sure.

    Life of Pi (ship sinking sequence) is another good demo, especially in 3D. The DTS Master Audio is also fantastic.

    I was showing my brother inlaw my 5.2.4 system using Mad Max Fury Road. He was blown away. That movie gives your subs a workout with all the big engine sounds. Great one to really flex the system.

    10 Cloverfield lane - 1:30:00 is a cool use of atmos. I cant remember if it uses atmos elsewhere.
    Encanto -dinner scene
    Netflix is also putting out good atmos. Black Crab has a ton of atmos.
    I have a ton of 4ks with atmos i need to watch.
    I also hate how atmos is barely used in movies. When you have full-range atmos speakers, you kind of hope for more than the common atmospheric stuff
    Thanks for the heads up on Edge of Tomorrow (and someone in the comments metioned django) as a movie for subwoofer damaging potential. I had no idea until i heard about it in another youtube channel. Too bad because these are 2 of my fav movies

    The Matrix was my first 4K disc. I picked it up because it's one of my all time favorites but man oh man it's GREAT in 4K! Still looks like film but the colors and detail are so sweet, and the sound rocks too.

    I dont know the time stamp, but in Steven Spielberg 's Super 8, which is a awesome Sci Fi movie, there is a train crash scene that shakes the house. And overall it's a great movie.
    Enjoyed the review, keep up the good work.

    Blade Runner 2049 (opening is crazy)

    Oblivion (drones attack)
    Ip Man 2
    Spiderman Into The Spiderverse

    Nice list, a bit different than the norm but in a good way. Ford v Ferrari is definitely one of my favorites for testing and showing off my system. It's also just a great movie that I can rewatch frequently. Out of the more recent releases, the intro to a Quiet Place Part 2 is freaking insane. Give that a go if you haven't already. Also, Shawshank Redemption looks absolutely incredible and Green Knight is demo worthy as well.

  • @michaelchenault3774

    Another great video. I agree with a lot of your choices. A couple of ones I like to use are La La Land, Blade Runner 2049, Mission Impossible 5, and a old classic Jurassic Park. Keep up the great work, Ive been a fan of the channel for a few years now!

Fantastic surround sound and some Heavy subwoofer explosions.

    Cool list. Didn’t expect Jaws lol.
    I’d say some of my demo-worthy discs are:
    Ready Player One
    Saving Private Ryan
    The Dark Knight
    Evil Dead (2013)
    The Amazing Spider-Man 2
    The A-Team (2010)
    King Kong (2005)
    Interstellar
    I don’t think a lot of them have Atmos, but honestly I don’t even care lol they sound and look great

    Great video Cody! I really like to use the opening scene of The Matrix Reloaded. Blade Runner 2049 opening scene 2:04 this will show off the dynamic power of your system REAL good! The good ole Brontosaurus Stampede scene in King Kong 2005 on 4K disc DTS:X is a good one too.

    I'm not into big Boombastic sounds... I prefer the subtlety of the low frequencies plus it always helps if it's a great movie as well. My two psychological Horrors for low frequencies effects...

    Now since I have decent SVS subwoofers, I don’t have to worry about heavy bass movies like Edge of Tomorrow. The Matrix’s lobby scene has been one of my top demo scenes to play on systems.

      I just got a £13.99 refund from Netflix for my so-called 4K plan nevermind the compression but the pixelation on the actors faces was just awful and I was running at 112 mbps, plus it was 12:30 at night therefore by my calculations there is absolutely no excuse from Netflix! Physical Media rules and this is coming from person who haven't got a Blu-ray player 😅

    @familiatrois3813 3 года назад

    Good list! I agree with your selections. I recently upgraded my system to support 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray discs and have been regularly re-acquainting myself with my physical disc Library. My list would include the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray of Stanley Kubrick’s “2001:A Space Odyssey”. It looks amazing for a 53 year-old movie! Part 3:’Jupiter and beyond the infinite’ is a good demonstration of the audio and video elements of your system. As a newer film, Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet” has an opening in the Ukrainian Symphony House that is intense in the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray format. In the none sci-fi genre, Alfred Hitchcock’s “North by Northwest” is very visually pleasing for a 62 year-old movie on Blu-ray. I echo the comments for the drum-scene in Yimou Zhang’s “House of the Flying Daggers” in Blu-ray. It is an audio tour-de-force. And, lastly, DreamWorks Animation’s “Rise of the Guardians” has the most lifelike animation I’ve seen in the Blu-ray format. As an honorable mention, I would add the ‘Moscow evening bridge shootout’ in Brad Bird’s “Mission Impossible:Ghost Protocol” in Blu-ray format. It will give your speakers a workout, including the Surrounds. Really like what you’re doing and enjoy watching your videos!
